À propos de l?auteur

Elizabeth Shepley Sergeant (1881–1965) was an American journalist and author whose compassionate, socially aware writings often focused on marginalized communities. During World War I, while serving as a war correspondent on the Western Front, she was severely wounded by a landmine explosion in October 1918 and subsequently spent months recuperating. Her memoir Shadow‑Shapes: Journal of a Wounded Woman (1920) provides a rare and intimate perspective on war and healing from a woman’s viewpoint, blending vivid personal narrative with broader reflections on suffering and resilience. Following the war, Sergeant continued to champion social causes. She worked in New Mexico among Pueblo communities, reporting for The New Republic and The Nation, and later producing acclaimed biographies of Willa Cather and Robert Frost.
